There has been a recent trend in the
country to belittle the leaders of Indian independence struggle, or
compare them against each other to decide which was the better one.
Indian freedom movement was not a competition. It was the struggle of
a nation to assert its right to self-respect, and dignity.

It doesn’t matter who contributed how
much. Every freedom fighter, whether it was the common man, or a
great leader deserves equal respect. Indian Independence is a great
milestone in the history of mankind. It demonstrated to the world the Indian maxim – truth always wins. Don’t ruin the value
of the mighty struggle by glorifying one leader, and vilifying the
other. Whatever their differences may be, they fought for the same
goal – freedom against oppression.

It's the duty of every Indian to maintain the independence instead of
debating on who is responsible for getting independence. Independence
is a responsibility to be nurtured. Thousands of Indians sacrificed their
family, career, and life for freedom.

Indian
Independence day is the day of pride of every Indian, and everyone
else who is against oppression. Let our independence serve as a hope
to every nation who dreams to win against tyranny.
